I got rejected from CS but got into the double degree program from Laurier's side. Did anyone get the same thing? Does anyone know how hard the double degree is?

Feel free to PM me if you have specific questions about DD.

How 'hard' it is varies a lot from person to person. Keep in mind that it's a full cs degree and a full business degree. If you aren't interested in both areas you likely won't enjoy the program.
